24 Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.

Marriage, a beginning for two hearts to live as one. A learning process for two people, sometimes a bit of a struggle but anything worth having is worth fighting for, right?

My sister, Jessica, was married on Friday morning. She & Kyle have been an item for a while now, and on Friday the two became one. I'm sure as they both prepared for the ceremony they had butterflies, and the normal jitters.

The ceremony was held at Stockton Park in Jacksonville. It was a very intimate wedding with approximately thirty guests or so. Jessica planned everything so perfectly, and I must say the ceremony was beautiful and suited my sister & Kyle's personalities to a "t". As I snapped pictures of the two of them throughout the day, I couldn't help but smile thinking back to the day I married Travis. Those same butterflies and jitters, knowing I would soon be this mans wife! The time came for the ceremony to begin and as my sister walked to meet her future husband I prayed that God would be the center of their marriage.

These two have a close walk with the Lord, and I truly believe that as long as they continue to walk closely with Him, and seek His will for their lives and their marriage that they will grow old together.

The pastor spoke about how they should live as one. That Kyle should love Jessica as Christ loved the church, and how Jessica should submit herself to her husband. There is so much that makes a marriage work. I truly believe that the two have to be best of friends, believe in each other, and respect each other. Marriage is all about communication, honesty, and trust. As these two begin their lives as one it is my prayer that they will always seek God's will, may they love each other more with each passing day, and may they always remember the reason(s) that they fell in love to begin with. The days that come as difficult ones, are days to learn from. End each day with I love you, and always remember that the other is there for you, not to be against you.

Kyle & Jessica,

I love you both very much. I wish you the very best and pray God's many blessings on your marriage. Kyle, welcome to our family. We're a few cracked nuts from time to time, but we're good nuts! :) Jessica, as always, you make me smile, and I'm proud to say I'm your sister. You were absolutely beautiful as you became Mrs. Kyle Hannah!! Hope the two of you have a wonderful time on your honeymoon. Make everyday a honeymoon! ;) Laughter, and friendship is a great key to a great marriage!! Hope you enjoy your pictures, and we can't wait to see you soon! I love you very much! Take care, and God bless!

Blessings to you...

Jen

I am a wife & mother. My husband is Travis and we have two beautiful boys, Carter and Tucker, that bring us more joy than we ever dreamed possible!These three consume my life and I am so grateful that God has allowed me to be a part of their lives. Travis is an amazing husband. He deals with my moody self with no complaints! Carter is a loving, happy, and on the go six year old. He makes us smile regardless of the situation. Tucker is our shy guy, but don't let the shyness fool you he's a firecracker underneath! His giggle is contagious, his eyes sparkle, and he gives the sweetest kisses! My family is pretty much my life, all the other stuff are extra blessings. I started this blog as a reminder to myself the days I wish to remember.

The reason I blog...

I started blogging in April of 2008. I wasn't really sure of what I was doing when I started this whole thing or whether or not I'd even stick with it. Looking back over the past year, I am so grateful that I jotted down the little memories that make up our life. The days pass so quickly I don't want to forget the funny little things that my children say or the moments that brought smiles to my face, or the bumps in the road that made my faith stronger. Blogging has become a part of my routine. I enjoy looking back and reading things that happened weeks back, and also sharing what's going on in our lives with my family & friends.

My better half

I thank God for my husband, Travis, each and every day. I love the way he puts up with my quirky ways and loves me regardless. He is a true blessing, and my life would not be complete without him. I LOVE YOU TRAV!

Our little cowboy

My oldest son, Carter. Six years old and full of energy and spunk. Each day is bright and fresh with this child, full of questions and a little heart that over flows with love. He's funny, sweet, and brings more smiles to my life then I ever dreamed possible!!! I LOVE YOU MORE CARTER!!!

Cowboy in training....

My little Tucker, a.k.a Tucker Bear, is such a little firecracker!! He is shy at times but when it's just us at home, expect the unexpected!!! He loves to sing. He loves to do whatever his Daddy and brother are doing. His eyes sparkle like stars and he gives the sweetest kisses. He's the life of the party, too! Twinkle, twinkle... I love you!
